                           CALL FOR WORKSHOPS

                THE TWELFTH UK NATIONAL BISEXUAL CONFERENCE

Dear Friends

As you already know, the 12th UK National Bisexual Conference is being
held in Edinburgh, on 4th-6th August.

We are writing to ask if you would be willing to facilitate a
workshop/s during the conference.

We are not asking for experts (though we wouldn't turn them away!).
We'd just like you to be reasonably interested in the subject and
willing to help a small group talk about it. It isn't difficult or
frightening, and a lot of the people running the workshops at this
conference are likely to be doing it for the first time. There will be
an introductory session for people running workshops on the Wednesday
evening.

Alternatively, you could give a presentation followed by a discussion
and/or questions, or a structured workshop. We welcome workshops like
this too!!

We are a small group organising a large conference and we'd appreciate
as many offers to run workshop/s as can be organised, so please
volunteer if you possibly can.

Please don't forget to register as well as volunteering to run a
workshop!! In order to keep the registration fees as low as possible,
we are unable to pay workshop expenses.

It would help us greatly with our planning if you could let us know if
you intend to run a workshop/s _as_ _soon_ _as_ _possible_. Please send
us a short blurb to say what the workshop will be about so we can
include it in the conference programme. At the last conference the
issue of restricted workshops, eg. women only, men only workshops was
discussed. Following the suggestion made then, the policy of this
conference is that any workshop facilitator who wants to restrict their
workshop must explain why in the blurb.

Please also let us know which days you will be at the conference,
whether you would like equipment provided, and if you would be willing
to repeat a workshop - subject to popular demand?

Thanks for your help! We hope to hear from you soon.

Best wishes

Janis & Nicky, Workshop Co-ordinators
